I didn't think Bowling For Columbine was lies at all. I don't really pay attention to Farenheit 9/11. And I can't comment on any of his other stuff because I haven't read or seen it.
But it don't take much to get me by
So just booze me up and get me high

Truth be told, I have never seen Bowling for Columbine... Nor do I want to see it.

Fair enough. But don't say you don't want to see it just because you're afraid that it might change your views or make you agree with Michael Moore on something. I don't think there is really a liberal vs. conservative or Dem vs. Rep aspect to Bowling For Columbine at all. I think it's really just Moore highlighting an issue and presenting his argument...it's there for you to take from it what you will. It's unlike Farenheit where there is a clear bias and leaning on Moore's part.

I only choose not to see it for the fact that I know what happened during Comlumbine what could he possibly tell me that I don't already know? That the gun company is bad? and they are responsible for the shootings... Please. I may be wrong he might not be saying that but knowing Michael Moore that is probably what he will be trying to get at.

Debates go off topic... it is just the nature of discussion. One thing leads to another.

And about Pulp Fiction... I think that people can be squares (i.e. geeks) but they trace Uma Thurmonds hands and it makes a rectangle shape! Not a square shape! Arrrrrrrgggggg.

It isn't left versus right or anything like 9/11... worth seeing for sure. You don't have to tell me if you like it

No, the movie actually is not all about Columbine at all. The movie is Michael Moore exploring the question of why the U.S. has thousands and thousands more gun related deaths every year than any other country in the world.

So just booze me up and get me high
